Grid View for ASP.NET Web Forms - Create a DataItemTemplate for a column at Runtime

This example demonstrates how to create a column cell template at runtime. Grid cells display the ASPxHyperLink control created in the template.

Implementation Details

Declare a custom class that implements the ITemplate interface.

In the class's InstantiateIn method, create controls that make up the template and add them to the control collection of a container passed as this method's parameter. The container type is different for each template type. For a DataItemTemplate object, the container is of the GridViewDataItemTemplateContainer type. Use the container's properties to obtain a row's information. For example, use the KeyValue property to get a row key (container.KeyValue).

Create an instance of the template class and assign it to the column's DataItemTemplate property.
